\r eclipse

Question

Hi :) working on eclipse i have the same output when i write
System.out.println("Hello \r world");
System.out.println("Hello \n world");
Output:
Hello
world
Hello
world
Or if working on netBeans ,the output is :
world
Hello
world
???
Thank u :)

Answer 1

According to the behaviour of these 2 escape sequences, the one produced by NetBeans seems to be more apt or more right.
If it was in C++, we could blame it on the compiler in most cases 😉 but since Java is somewhat perfect in implementing these, I don't know the reason of the behavior.
I would wait and see if someone has an answer for this change in output.
